Can’t wait for the next update...

Really I am a little jealous I'd love to do a ride like that, weather permitting.

You'd guess by now maybe I do love driving and I think nothing of getting in my wheels at anytime after provisioning up with little planning and set off for a day or three. I just find it relaxing and yes, call it escapism perhaps

Other things planned include gardens by the bay, drinks at the Skypark (on top of the Marina Bay Sands), a trip to Raffles, China Town and Little India...a few other bits and bobs too.

I cut my trip short due to poor weather forecasts for the south eastern united states. Forecasts call for rain Wednesday, all day Thursday and all day Friday. Not wanting to get caught in the cold rain, I decided to ride straight home from Nashville today. I made it 800 miles in just under 12 hours.

Total miles for the last 4 days across 7 states.

The mountains in Tennessee were a fun ride. Nothing like the open road.

Speaking of trips, the wife and I are trying to decide where to go in the Spring. Since we hit Borneo last go round, we’re thinking maybe Europe. I’m wanting Iceland, but it’s still up in the air...

Gonna try to get up to Seattle in a few weeks to hit Olympic and Mt. Rainier National Parks...

Why are you swerving so much?

Do you have a specific time in the video you're referring to? Maybe I'm adjusting the camera, avoiding pot holes/man holes/road debris, being pushed by wind off the mountains/tractor trailers or just having fun.

edit: Since you mentioned it, I paid particular attention on today's rides. I noticed a couple of things. Whenever I drop one hand from the handle bars I tend to lean a bit in that direction. This causes the bike to veer slightly the same way. I also think my aftermarket wind screen is responsible for gradually pushing my motorcycle to the left at speed. I never really noticed this until today. I just made the minor adjustment while riding.
